bbPress 2.4 is not far away, download the release candidate from here:
bbPress 2.4 – Release Candidate 1
There was a lot of cool work done to make bbPress responsive as detailed
in Ticket #1933.
Categories are currently only imported as a forum type and each of these can be changed in WP-admin forums panel.
Sub-forums in phpBB and bbPress are all just forums with a parent forum for the forum hierarchy, these can be changed re-ordered etc also in WP-admin forums panel.
Your forum title ‘Obutto’ is just a title name for the site, you can set the title of your WordPress site title in WP-admin.

Take a look at the GSoC project by @frederickding
It’s an update to the WXR importer, I haven’t tried/tested this yet to see what’s different or how well it works with bbPress, but it looks promising.

If you do give it a try I’d love to hear any feedback you have.
Hello,
I want to include WP template tags in bbPress templates and vice versa.
For example in user-profile.php in my bbPress template, I want to include <?php echo get_the_author_posts(); ?> (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_the_author_posts), which is a WP template tag.
Similarly, for author.php in my WordPress template, I want to include topics started by the author.
I imagine I’d have to query the user, so is there a way of doing this?
Thanks for your answer, I did add the code snippet in the theme’s functions.php file but nothing shows… 🙁
In BBpress forum settings, a crossed the wordpress fancy editor’s box as well as the Auto-embed links and the Fancy editor full ones.
My problem mainly is that there is NO editor at all.. I would be happy even to have a non-fancy one ^^
The formatting toolbar on our discussion forum above the comment box keeps disappearing. Was working on Firefox, then it went away. Now switched to Chrome, where it’s still available, but not appearing on Safari at all. Using latest version of the bbPress plugin and WordPress.
Still available and working fine in this support forum (currently using Safari browser) so would seem to be site-specific. Any help appreciated.
I’ve been trying to import my vanilla 2 forum posts (just under 500000 replies) and it’s been working away for a very very long time. Tried to do it on the server as well as locally on my macbook pro running Mountain Lion. It seems that it’s even running slower locally than on my server and after leaving it to run for a couple of days, I’m about 1/4 of the way there.
Tried all kinds of delay times and row limits but I can’t find a way to improve the speed of the import.
I was wondering if anyone here has successfully imported a database this size and has tips on how to speed up the process? Even at a 200 Limit with 3 second delay my MySQL workbench on my local machine shows 11000 Queries/second which seems a bit high?
I’m using the latest versions of bbpress, wordpress and vanilla.
The fancy editor is disabled by default. You have two choices:
Enable Visual Editor
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/
It’s for good reason that it’s disabled though. It considerably slows down mobile devices and is just all around far more unpredictable than the plain editor in terms of how users might mess up with it.
I cannot find, how to have moderators or key masters be able to ban users – without them also being ADMIN on the WordPress site ?
Have I missed something ?
(lastest version of everything -wordpress+bbpress etc.)
OK, version 1 uploaded to official repository:
Get it here.
Forgot to include information:
I am using latest wordpress
Latest Buddypress
Latest Bbpress
if you want to give a look here is a link :
http://www.kleepp.it/groups/blender-for-cgi/forum/
Strange thing…it appears on the group wall and on activity, just doesnt show up where it should be.
No probs, checked the plugin’s forum on wordpress.org and saw there were a few issues raised there so a bit of work ahead.
I have started work on 0.4 🙂
I’m trying to edit "user" started the topic "Topic" in the forum "Forum" in the activity header of my buddypress activity page. I looked forever to try and find it in wp-content/pluggins/buddypress/bp-languages/buddypress.POT and couldn’t find this: %1$s started the topic %2$s in the forum %3$s I eventually found it in
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/languages/bbpress.POT I then did this:
1. edit the file bbpress.pot file in poedit.
2. create the folder “bbpress” in the wordpress content languages folder. Make the languages folder if you need to so your path looks like this: wp-content/languages/bbpress
3. save the edited bbpress.pot file as bbpress-en_US.po
4. upload the created po and mo files to the bbpress folder in lanugaes. reset your cashe to see it working
I found that in this thread: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/language-file-isnt-working/
I also tried
define ('WPLANG', 'en_US');
Nothing. Am I doing this right?
Please help, I’ve been stuck for weeks on this.

Agreed, I can only hack the URL of the WordPress admin dashboard to get me ~250 users at a time and yes it is tedious and in the past I have done most of this directly in phpMyAdmin with SQL.
@leahcar8/
Great news that the conversion finished 🙂
The post counts in the backend and frontend should match so that has me a little curious to what is going on with that… Any chance you could post a couple of screenshots showing those numbers?
Thanks for the testing offer, I’ll let you know 🙂
I wanted to enable a WP shortcode I have written within bbpress, it seems the common way to do this is to use do_shortcodes($content) on the post, this works fine and I’ve seen it in a number of published plugins.
The problem with this is that it enables all shortcodes including the bbpress ones such as login, stats etc. In fact a number of published plugins suffer from this issue (oops).
The best solution I’ve come across is using the whitelist plugin:
http://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/
But I was wondering if anyone had any other ideas?
Could a new bbpress action for registering shortcodes be added? Then any plugin author just has to register their own new one and not have to worry.
My other idea is to do a find/replace on “[” before my do_shortcodes call, switch them to something else, and then switch them back after, but leaving my own shortcodes unchanged.
Anyone else had this prob? Anyone using a plugin that hasn’t taken this into consideration?! (try adding a bbpress shortcode to a post and seeing what happens!)

Hi community,
I need to setup the ckeditor for bbpress.
I have install the ckeditor plugin (v4.0) for wordpress
http://wordpress.org/plugins/ckeditor-for-wordpress/
It works in the post area, but not in bbpress replies and topics.
Is any setup that I can do, an enable function like tinyMCE made?
My instalation:
WPMU 3.6
Bbpress 2.3.2
buddypress 1.7.2
other plugins
Thanks
Cool… I Try to subscribe to all the importer topics here but occasionally miss some.
As to any ‘imported_username’ this is a feature of the importer so if a user already exists with that username an additional username is created with the prefix ‘imported_’ in front of the username. If you go to the WordPress User admin and select the ‘imported_username’ user and select delete on that user you will then be prompted to delete the user but attribute all posts to another user, select the original (i.e Non ‘imported_’ username) and all their posts, topics, replies etc will then be attributed to that user.
I have the newest version of wordpress and bbpree
hello,
thanks. now i found a plugin that does all i want (“role scoper”: https://wordpress.org/plugins/role-scoper/). you can create groups, give these groups their permissions (pages, articles, forums, custom post types …) and than add the users to this groups. awesome.
@mchl Excellent that you now have a working migration. I don’t know of any outstanding issues for any {{{wp_insert_post}}} memory leak, now could I see any issue regarding this in WP Trac.
@leahcar8 Looks like your getting closer and closer to getting there too 🙂
I am doing lots of work on all ~20 importers at the moment that with all this feedback I will try to look at optimizing both the importer and the SQL queries used for inclusion in bbPress 2.5.
All these little gotchyas, tips, tricks and feedback is extremely helpful so I will also get the docs updated to include as much of this info to. 🙂
No, by default bbPress does not have a ‘post preview’ feature at this stage.
There are various plugins for using different editors and some are compatible with bbPress and some have a post preview.
Take a look around https://wordpress.org/plugins/ and see if anything is suitable.
For some reason I get these messages when I try to create a new post in my forum:
ERROR: Invalid author name submitted!
ERROR: Invalid email address submitted!
ERROR: The following problem(s) have been found with your topic:
I get this even when I’m logged in as admin or moderator. Any ideas on what’s going on? It had been working fine. I don’t remember installing any new plugins or changing any settings. Tried this on two different browsers.
